4 Claims.
This invention relates to fuel pumps, and more particularly to fuel pumps for internal combustion engines wherein liquid fuel is supplied to the engine at a substantially constant pressure.
It is an object of my invention therefore to provide a fuel pump which will eficiently supply liquid fuel at a substantially constant pressure.
It is another object of my inventionto provide a fuel pump which is compact and utilizes a relatively small amount of space for the unit of fuel handled.
Another object of my invention is to provide a fuel pump which employs a minimum number of frictionally engaging parts per unit of fuel pumped.
Another object of my invention is to provide a fuel pump wherein friction is reduced to a minimum through utilization of anti-friction bearings.
Another object of my invention is to provide a fuel pump which is economical of manufacture and which requires a minimum of machine operations.
Another object of my invention is to provide a fuel pump which can be economically and easily assembled and disassembled.
Another object of my invention is to provide a fuel pump the parts of which are adapted to be easily and economically machined.
Another object of my invention is to provide a fuel pump wherein the danger of air being trapped and consequent stoppage of the pump is obviated.
These and other objects of the invention will become more apparent from a consideration of the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a longitudinal medialsectional view of a pump embodying my invention; and
Fig. 2 shows a section taken along the line ll-ll of Fig. 1.
In the drawing I show a housing enclosing the pump and generally indicated at l, comprising a head 2, an intermediate band portion 3, and an end member i. The head comprises a longitudinal body portion generally U-shaped in crosssection and provided with relatively thick laterally and outwardly extending feet 6, which join a radially extending flange 9 of end portion l and a radially extending flange Ill of end portion 3. A bearing aperture H is provided in end i and a shouldered bearing aperture I2 is provided in end 8.
Bearings l3 and HA, preferably ball bearings,
are disposed within apertures l l and I2 preferably by press-fitting and with the outer ball race of bearing E3A- abutting the shouldered recess [2 in end 3.
A preferably supported in the housing and I3A. The camshaft M is provided with a 5 generally cylindrical coaxial bore therein but having at one end a reduced inner bore with longitudinal recesses 94 therein adapted to engage a splined driving shaft (not shown). The driving shaft is preferably actuated directly from the crank shaft or a governing shaft but any desirable means may be utilized. I
The camshaft I4 is preferably provided with reduced outer end portions l5 and I6 upon which the inner ball-races of bearings l3 and ISA are disposed preferably by press-fitting so as to abut shoulders ll, and a threaded end portion l8 of the camshaft I4 is adapted to receive a nut I9 whereby the inner race of bearing I3A may be securely held intermediate the shoulder ll of the said shaft and the nut I9. The camshaft i4 is therefore limited in longitudinal movement by the nut l9 and the shoulder I1 abutting the ball-races.
Preferably circular cams 20 are integrally secured to the cam shaft l4 and are disposed preferably in equal angular and longitudinal relation thereon. It is desirable that the throw of each of the cams be the same-to ensure a generally uniform fuel pressure. It is also desirable that the cams be circular in contour since such a structure in combination with a relatively equal angular disposition about the shaft axis and equal throw of the cams ensures that a substantially uniform pressure will be maintained at all of the cylinder fuel injection valves. \1
A cap 2:. is preferably disposed around the nut [9 to serve as an oil retainer and to protect it from damage and may be secured to the head 2 in any suitable manner. I
The intermediate band portion 3 is generally rectangular in shape andis provided with relatively thick laterally and outwardly extending flanges 22 and 23 at the top and bottom portions of the band side walls 24 and 25. The band end walls 26 and 21 are provided with outwardly ex- 5 tending flanges 28 and 29 at the top and bottom circular camshaft M is rotatably 2 by the bearings l3 portions respectively. The end wall 21 is further provided with vertical outwardly flaring flanges 3B joining the top and bottom flanges 28 and 29.
A guide block 3| having generally horizontal upper and lower faces 32 and 33 and generally oval shaped is disposed intermediate head 2 and band 3. The guide block 3| is provided with outwardly extending flanges-34 at the sides thereof which are interposed between flange 22 of band 5 3 and flange 8 of head 2, and outwardly extending end flanges 35 which are interposed between the bottoms of end walls 1 and 8 of head 2 and flanges 28- of band 3. I show a plurality of bolts 88 which are disposed in aligned perforations in head 2, guide block 3|, and band 3, and having nuts 81 threaded thereon for securing the members together but it is understood that any suitable means may be used.
Horizontal cylindrical bores I38 are provided in the guide block 8| within which are slidingly disposed generally cylindrical guide heads I31 formed with a U shaped transverse slot 38 in the head thereof, a co-axial recess 39 in the bottom, and a smaller co-axial aperture leading therefrom within which is rigidly secured a shouldered button 48 preferably bytforce-flt.
Transverse vertical aligned apertures 4| and 42 are provided in the guide heads and within which is secured a pin 43 which is prevented from longitudinal movement by the circular springs 44 engaging transverse grooves in pin 43 and complementary grooves in apertures 4| and 42.
A cam follower 45, preferably a ball bearing unit as indicated, is rotatably supported by pin 43 and is kept centrally disposed within the transverse slot 38 by washers 48 provided on either side of the cam follower.
The end member 4 comprises a. generally rectangular block formed with end flanges 41 and 48; and a flange 49 at one side thereof, generally rectangular in cross-section and provided with a laterally disposed narrow portion 58. The member 4 is secured to band 3 by bolts 41A which are disposed in apertures provided in flanges 41 and 48 and engage threaded recesses in flanges 28 ofband 3. Horizontal threaded recesses are co-axially aligned with and terminate in slightly reduced recesses 52 which in turn are 00- axially aligned with pairs of reduced bores 53 and 54 in member 4.
Vertical'bores 55 in the top face of the block intersect the horizontal bores 54 and extend a substantial distance beyond the said bores. Fuel supply ports 58 extend axially from bores 55 to a common horizontal fuel supply line 51 extending longitudinally through the block and adapted to be connected to a fuel reservoir (not shown).
The bores 55 are each coaxially aligned with successively enlarged internally threaded recesses 58 and 58. A horizontal cylinder fuel discharge line 88 runs longitudinally of the block and joins the upper portions of the recess 58.
A ported member 8| is disposed in each bore 55 and abuts the shoulder 55A between bore 55 and port 58, and is retained in position by a member 82 threaded within recess 58.
The member 8i is composed of three axially aligned cylindrical elements 89-48 and 88A. The upper and lower cylindrical elements 89 and 89A are provided with coaxial valve bores 83 and 84 having outwardly flaring shoulders at the upper ends of the bores to form frusto-ccnical valve seats 8588 for vertically reciproca'ble, headed valves 81 and 88 disposed axially within the bores 88 and 84 respectively. The valves are provided each with a stem. portion which bears upon the wall of the bores 83 and 84 at a distance from the head to ensure that the valves will remain in coaxial alignment with the bores 83 and 84 and seats 88 and 88.
Each intermediate cylindrical element 18 has a transverse cylinder'bore 1| axially aligned with the bore 54 communicating upwardly with the valve bore 84 and downwardly with the va ve bore ,easy method of assembling the valve units.
83. The member 82 and cylindrical element 18 have downwardly open recesses for enclosing the valve heads to guide them and limit vertical throw thereof.
A pump plunger 14 contacts each button 48 and is held in spring-pressed relation therewith by a normally compressed spring which seats upon a plunger sleeve 18 and at one end the spring end convolutions bear upon a member 11 which abuts a head 18 on plunger 14. It will be noted that the head 18 is provided with a top rounded portion which contacts button 48 thereby ensuring that the thrust motion will be transmitted in axial alignment with the plunger. The spring 15 is of sufficient compressive strength to ensure that the plunger head will always be in contact with the button 48 at any engine speeds which might be attained.
The plunger sleeve 18 is a cylindrical member provided with a lateral peripheral flange 91 upon which the other end convolutions of the spring seat and a boss 98 which fits a recess provided therefor in end member 4. A central bore therein is adapted to slidingly engage the plunger 14. The plunger sleeve 18 is held in position by a nut 18 provided with a central bore adapted to provide clearance for spring 15 and externally screwthreadedly engaging the laterally disposed portion 58 of the end member 4. A head 88 preferably hexagonal in shape is provided on nut 18 whereby it'may be easily rotated.
In operating the pump, oil is fed from a reservoir to the pump entering by means of line 51, thence through port 58 in member 4 to valve 81 and thence to chamber 1i, which will be accomplished as the plunger 14 is moving outwardly thereby relieving the pressure in chamber 1| The pressure of the fuel injected into the engine may vary up to 28,008 lbs. per square inch which will be acting on valve 88 thereby ensuring that it will remain closed on the outward stroke of plunger 14 and the oil pressure in the. chamber 1! will become less than that in oil'reservoir whereby oil will be supplied to the chamber. Upon the inward stroke or compressive stroke of the plunger, the valve 81 will be forced closed and when sufllcient pressure has been built up within the chamber 1|, the valve 88 will be forced open thus supplying oil to the fuel injection valve at the cylinder. It will be observed that a plurality of plungers may be employed, in this instance three, and the oil fed to a common line 88 and thence to a plurality of cylinders. It is essential that a substantially constant pressure be maintained to each cylinder and also during all stages of the working stroke. 7
By utilizing a common supply line in combination with valves 88 which do not open until the. supply pressure is in excess of that, in the common supply line such a condition is assured. Further, by employing a plurality of cams, preferably three in number, a substantially constant pressure may be maintained in the common cylinder supply line. I have found that by using three cams circular in contour employing the same length throw, and being equally disposed angularly about the cam shaft axis that a substantially constant pressure can be maintained on a common cylinder supply line. However, it is understood that each cylinder may utilize an individual pump or any combination of cylinders may be fed from one pump.
